    Quick simple saw horses

    it seems that every time I make a pair of saw horses someone says hey I need a pair of those so I usually just give them to them it only takes a few minutes to make another pair
    I started these by nailing 3 8 ft 2x4s together to make an "I" beam then cut 8 2x4s 32" long and nailed them in place then sued some scrap pieces as under braces

    using the air nailer and butting the legs up to the I beams I saw no need to do any fancy coping or cutting at angles
